The Site.
Comments are off until further notice.
I’ve gotten a ton of comment spam lately. One morning I woke up with something like 10 comment spam posts in the moderation queue. I may allow comments or new posts from now on, or I may allow comments temporarily, or I may allow comments only for select posts.
It sucks, but spammers are awful people.
So I sent my Xbox 360 in to Microsoft for repair. They sent me back a replacement unit. That’s funny, because the unit they replaced was itself a replacement unit.
So the current machine runs fine — it doesn’t freeze while playing Gears of War. That’s a nice feature. However, whenever the DVD drive stops spinning (like when I quit a game up to the dashboard) the 360 lets out a noise uncannily similar to the noise made by a Tusken Raider. A Tusken Raider repeats the noise a few times, but my Xbox 360 just makes the noise once. I’m afraid that one of these days I’m going to press the eject button and a smoldering puddle of plastic that used to be a game disc will pop out. But my fingers are crossed so that won’t happen.

Internet.
After Google bought YouTube, did anyone else think, “Okay, yeah, I can upload content to YouTube, and now I don’t have to worry about it going out of business some day”?
Anyone?
I did.
